The Ultimate Steering Upgrade for Your Ram 3500

Upgrade your 2003-2007 Dodge Ram 3500 with the CORE 4X4 2.5 Ton Steering Kit, engineered for unmatched durability, steering precision, and front-end strength. Factory steering components wear out, weaken, and lead to misalignment, wandering, and bump steer, especially under heavy loads or off-road conditions.

This complete tie rod and drag link upgrade is built from massive 2” 7075 aluminum, a high-strength material that flexes under impact to prevent permanent bending. Equipped with heavy-duty Apex tie rod ends and thrust washers for absolute jam nut security, this kit maintains alignment, improves steering response, and enhances overall front-end stability.

What’s Included in the Kit?

  • CORE 4X4 2.5 Ton Tie Rod Upgrade – D-35-2003-TR1
  • CORE 4X4 2.5 Ton Drag Link Upgrade – D-35-2003-DL1
  • Steering Stabilizer Mount Bracket

Key Features and Benefits

  • 2” 7075 Aluminum Construction – Exceptionally strong yet flexible, absorbing impacts and returning to its original shape to maintain precise steering alignment.
  • Heavy-Duty Apex Tie Rod Ends – Designed to handle extreme loads, ensuring long-lasting performance in all driving conditions.
  • Lifetime Warranty Wearable Parts Guarantee – Lifetime coverage on bars against permanent bending or breaking and 18-month coverage on tie rod ends for long-term reliability.
  • Thrust Washer System for Secure Alignment – Serrated thrust washers under jam nuts create a permanent mechanical lock, eliminating the risk of misalignment.
  • Complete Steering Stabilizer Compatibility – Includes a steering stabilizer mount bracket for secure installation.
  • Recommended Pairing – Pair with the Adjustable Front Track Bar (D-35-2003-FTB1) for the ultimate front-end steering solution, eliminating wandering, bump steer, and alignment issues.

Unparalleled Steering Control and Strength

This steering kit significantly reduces front-end play, improves handling, and ensures alignment stays locked in, even under the stress of off-road driving, heavy towing, or lifted applications. The advanced memory properties of 7075 aluminum prevent deformation, ensuring your steering remains precise and responsive, even after hard impacts.

Two-Stage Powder Coating for Customization Durability

The tie rod and drag link are available in raw aluminum or 10 powder coat colors to match your truck’s aesthetic. Our two-stage powder coating process includes: Zinc primer base for corrosion resistance. Durable top coat for long-lasting protection.

Made in the USA

Proudly manufactured in Orem, UT, our CORE 4X4 steering components are built with American craftsmanship and industry-leading quality control, ensuring the highest level of performance and reliability.

In Conclusion

The CORE 4X4 2.5 Ton Steering Kit Upgrade is the ultimate solution for improving steering strength, maintaining alignment, and ensuring long-term durability. Whether you're off-roading, towing, or daily driving, this kit eliminates weak factory components and provides superior handling and stability.

Great company, who worked with me on shipping parts to arrive in time for a show. When I explained my concern they went above and beyond to make it happen. Quality of the parts is top notch.

I have nothing but good things to say about Core 4x4. I have the crawler series on my JKU and we take it all over the place. These parts handle everything we throw at them.

Best control arms I have installed on any of my builds. After running every major manufacturer, Core 4x4 is on par or better than all the high-end companies at a fraction of the cost. Lifetime warranty is the cherry on top.

Ive had the front adjustable control arm kit in bright green for my 1996 ZJ. Ive had the kit for about a year now and i have to say, im extremely impressed, over 1000 miles off-road and roughly 20,000 miles on the highway. These control arm kits for any vehicle built by core 4x4 are well worth the money, just be aware thereight be some minor scatches or chips from shipping ( but who should care about that if you're beating the crap out of em' they way they were built and designed for)

Great products they sell, got a crawl series long arm kit for my xj and it has held up quite nice, they are beefy, and for what ever reason they fail it has a great warranty with a customer service to match, when someone asks what control arm kit to buy I always recommend core 4x4

Have full upper/lower CA set on both front and rear axles on a 96 ZJ. These are the rubber bushing sets not joint sets. I have beat the hell out it in the Nevada desert for 2 years and has been great. I don’t go fast but I do articulate suspension a lot. Super solid and haven’t any issues. Just inspected the entire set recently due to some banging under it. Turns out the banging is lower rear shock bushings. Inspected each CA along the way nothing. Aside from dirt and obviously winter roads and what not still in excellent condition, bushings are solid like the day they were installed. I’ll add that I’m about tapped on a short arm at 4.25(less with settle) so the front CA’s get beat on just from that, still they’re like new. Paint is great condition, this set is red. I would definitely buy again. Another plus for me, Utah isn’t local necessarily, but it’s nice to support businesses closer to me.

Had a great experience with Core 4x4, I desperately needed a custom track bar and found out just a couple days before Easter Jeep Safari. Spence was a huge help and made it happen with plenty of time to spare. Their parts are top notch!

Very beefy items for a very reasonable price.  Personally have CORE rear track bar and all upper control arms for my 04 Jeep TJ.  Had a slight issue with control arm length and they went above and beyond to swap jam nuts to get me where I needed to be.  Really have to appreciate a company like this.
